Wink Tethering with Bell Mobility BlackBerry

Please Login to Remove!

I'm fighting with my Bell Mobility 7250 trying to get it to tether with my laptop. After installing the 4.1 BlackBerry OS I can now connect and authenticate on the network, my laptop receives an IP address and DNS settings but I cannot ping anything on the Internet.

Could someone with a Bell Mobility 7130e setup for tethering post the IP/DNS settings that you're given by the network? I'd like to compare to what I am receiving:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-53-45-00-00-00
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.131.19.14
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.131.19.14
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 198.235.216.130
209.226.175.236
NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Disabled

This list can be produced by opening a Command Prompt window (click Start, Run and type "cmd") and running the command "ipconfig /all"

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Finch!
After reading that post, I don't think I'm going to do it...I rely on wireless sync...
